Buffy the Vampire Slayer. I always loved how the monsters she fought in the show were obvious metaphors for the things we deal with in real life. She fought her monsters, literally. Everyday she went through hell, even died twice, and she still always had a pun or a witty comment about it...

So I guess I was right to be worried about Pixie not eating. She passed away yesterday. After another day of not eating, I took her to the vet. They did a bunch of tests on her and realized she had fluid in her abdomen. She had FIP. She was my baby and now she's just... gone.

Thanks Robin, I checked it out. I'm just worried about Pixie not eating and not going to the bathroom. She's only eaten a teeny bit of chicken since she's been here, and hasn't peed or pooed AT ALL.

Oy, reproduction, having kids, its a touchy subject for me. I was adopted at birth by my parents who were 32 at the time. They had tried having kids for several years, weren't able to, took it as a sign and adopted. Then at 39 my mom miraculously became pregnant and had my sister, then my...

Picture time! http://i1184.photobucket.com/albums/...9/HPIM0491.jpg Pixie! Unfortunately this is now the only picture I have of her. It was taken at Christmas. All of my other pictures weren't digital and we ruined in the flood we had July last year. Once Pixie comes out of hiding, I shall...

Crisco did that when I first got her little fountain. I just grabbed a shamwow, dampened it a little and stuck it underneath the fountain. It makes the fountain A LOT harder to move and absorbs any split water. It requires me to use some force to move it so hopefully it'll work for Simba!

Oh I know I have to give them more time. I just thought it was convenient to start posting about it after day 1 lol. Today was not a good day, so far anyway. Pixie is hiding behind the TV in the den and absolutely refuses to come out. She won't eat anything either. I'm debating what I...

Here's some more cats: James Bond villian Ernst Stavro Blofeld's white Persian and the parody, Dr. Evil's cat Mr. Bigglesworth, from the Austin Powers movies. The Simpson's cat(s), Snowball The Siamese cats from Disney's Lady & the Tramp Disney's The Aristocats The Cat in the Hat

Soooo here's my story. When I was 11, I finally talked my parents into letting me have a cat. The grandmother of one of my friends at school was a popular cat breeder here in town. She didn't breed purebred cats at all, but her female Tortoiseshell cat had a famous reputation in town for...

Hey everyone! Feels so great to find an awesome cat forum with so many active members! My name is Kari and my boyfriend and I have 3 kittie furbabies. The 3rd one just joined us today! Or well, yesterday I guess, considering its nearly 3 a.m. I've been a cat lover my entire life but didn't...
